Salt-N-Pepa - Live and Let Die lyrics
[Salt-N-Pepa - Live and Let Die lyrics]
I'm a sister with a grip on her life
I only live once so I gotta get right
The first time cuz there won't be a second
I'm not in the mood to preach
About the wrong of the world
It can't be changed by three girls
On the trio tip
We're not a proof of that trip
Excuses, that's the truth when
The proof compellin'
I ain't tellin' or sellin' out
To the pop life i like the spotlight
Gimme a mic and a beat so
I can speak words of wisdom
I may be young, feed some
Fall down, and filled up
I'm gonna build up
Knowledge is food for thought
So let's eat up
Whatever goes up, comes down
You see nothin' lasts forever
Not even MCs, you, he, she
And even I should live and let live
Or live and let die
Live and let die
You're wastin' time tryin' to
Change the mind
Of those who's souls are full of holes
I do unto others as I wish them to do unto me
Life ain't nothin' but death without money
My way of thinkin' is one track
My method of convincin' combat
Success is a mission
It's there for anyone who wants to do better
You know where I'm comin' from
Survival of the fittest
And I'll admit it's vicious
I testify as a witness
Let me say this first for what it's worth
It's true that the meek
Shall inherit the earth
But that don't mean you gotta
Be weak or soft
Even on the mic you can't take no shorts
I only help those who want to
Help themselves if no one else
As a youngster they taught me
To live and let live
And that's what I always did, word to miz
But there's a change in the
World that I live in
So don't be surprised if I live and let die
Live and let die live and let die
That's the eighth time that
Baser almost OD'd, man
Live and let die
Yo, Finster, baby, went up for homicide
Live and let die
He's out there skeezin' with no jimmy hat
Live and let die
K-bone was shortin' the fuzz and got dumped
Live and let die
I only live once so I gotta get right
The first time cuz there won't be a second
I'm not in the mood to preach
About the wrong of the world
It can't be changed by three girls
On the trio tip
We're not a proof of that trip
Excuses, that's the truth when
The proof compellin'
I ain't tellin' or sellin' out
To the pop life i like the spotlight
Gimme a mic and a beat so
I can speak words of wisdom
I may be young, feed some
Fall down, and filled up
I'm gonna build up
Knowledge is food for thought
So let's eat up
Whatever goes up, comes down
You see nothin' lasts forever
Not even MCs, you, he, she
And even I should live and let live
Or live and let die
Live and let die
You're wastin' time tryin' to
Change the mind
Of those who's souls are full of holes
I do unto others as I wish them to do unto me
Life ain't nothin' but death without money
